		+	== Using NAVIT-MAPS to get your maps (new feature July 2011) ==
		+	Install the new NAVIT-Maps app and you can easily download your maps, remember that you can always have more than one. For more details on these maps and how it all works read the next sections. But now you can get on without knowing all these details. Now you do a "just type" with full address: number street, town, state, country and it all works very well. You dont have to even start NAVIT! Further instrucition on this feature are here.
		+
		+	Currently (version 0.0.2) it has three function:
		+
		+	Download and maintain your OSM Maps on the device.
		+	Use Navit as the default mapping application (a)
		+	Use Navit with 'just Type' (b)
		+
		+
		+	(a) You can select Navit-Maps as the default mapping app as described here http://www.precentral.net/change-default-mapping-application . This will start Navit maps with a special scene when you select a address in your contacts or calendar.
		+	Navit maps will then try to find a geoposition for the address you selected. It starts Navit to show or route to the address if it only gets one result. You will get a list to select the right one from if Navit Maps get more the one result.
		+
		+	(b) You can select Navit as 'Just type application' as described here http://www.precentral.net/just-type-add-items-just-type . Now start to type the address in card view and select Navit from the application list.
		+	Navit maps will then try to find a geoposition for the address you typed. It start Navit to show the address if it only gets one result. You will get a list to select the right one from if Navit Maps get more the one result.
		+
		+	The Navit-Maps app will only work if you have the latest Navit version and migrate to the latest XML configuration if you have made any manual changes in the nvait.xml

		+	== Select Language and Country Location ==
		+
		+	Thanks to tengler who was desperate for a Czech solution, a long standing issue has been sorted out. You can now choose your speaking language and the location of your country! Just create a new text file named '''lang-override''' and write your language code into it. This is an example for Czech language:
		+
		+	Code:
		+
		+	cs_CZ.utf8
		+
		+	Copy this file to /media/internal/appdata/org.webosinternals.navit, e.g. by attaching Palm to your PC as USB drive. Or you can use a file manager (like Internalz) to create the file on Palm directly. Or you can use terminal ... it's up to you.
		+
		+	After launching Navit, all the menus are in the desired language and Navit gives audio instructions in the right language. And on top of that, the city selection screen has the right country preselected, Yeah!

 Navit is an open source (GPL) car navigation software for Linux systems. It will display your position on a map (in bird-view mode or as a 3D "visualization") from GPS sensor data, and can provide precise route calculation, touch screen functionality and supports Points of Interest (POI), which can be extended via an easy to use plugin system. Unlike other navigation systems, Navit maps are dynamically generated in real time  from vector data. Information about Navit can be found [http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Main_Page on the Navit wiki].
